Waterfall in Småland, Marcus Larson, 1856

This is a reproduction of “Waterfall in Småland” by Marcus Larson of 1856.  This wonderful landscape shows a scene located in southern Sweden.  It was created by Simeon Marcus Larson, one of Sweden’s greatest nineteenth century painters.  This is a fine example of his propensity to depict violent skies and dramatic landscapes featuring violent water courses.  He attended the Royal Swedish Academy for Arts when his talents for drawing were noticed by his employer.  He graduated by 1848 when he was twenty-three.  Thereafter he taught painting and continued to study under various painters.  Abroad in Dusseldorf and Paris, he began drawing commissions and returned to Sweden in 1858 and built a villa.  It burned in 1860 and he left for Helsinki, St. Petersburg and London.  He died of tuberculosis in London at the age of thirty-nine.  This masterpiece is the National Museum in Stockholm.

Stormy Sunrise of 2010

This is a reproduction of “Stormy Sunrise” of 2010. This is an effort to catch the feelings engendered by the dawning of a day that appears to be full of dreaded storms of life. The prior day seems to have troubles mounting with ever greater intensity and they loom over the morning, even from the moment the sun peaks over the horizon. This image of the ocean shore at day-break with torrents of rain in the background coming out of billowing clouds in the midst of which, however, one spies sun breaking through.
